^TRIAL OF INTENSIVE ANTHELMINTIC TREATMENT IN UGANDA^

The Lake Victoria Island Intervention Study on Worms and
Allergy-related diseases (LaVIISWA) randomised 26 villages (13
vs. 13) to either standard or intensive anthelmintic treatment
over 3 years. The primary outcomes were wheezing and atopy;
here, only data on a secondary outcome, size of the left liver
lobe, is included. This was measured in several subgroups, but
only data on the subgroup of randomly sampled hepatitis B
surface antigen negative adults are in this file.
